Some Spring for you

 This is for all those northern hemisphere people who are getting grumpy
because the frost is coming (or arrived already) and their tomatoes are
still green.  It is for those not looking forward to being indoors reading
seed catalogs for the next 5 months worrying about fuel bills.

It features blossoms, new life and includes some nubile ladies and a hairy
young male wriggling naked in the clover as our many of our forebears were
wont to do at this time of year.

Hmmm... I am not one of those, I am looking forward to winter. Fall has
just now arrived. It is unusually warm here, not a single frost yet! All, I
mean all of my flowers are still in bloom. The trees are just now starting
to change colors. Soon the leaves will fall big time. I would say we are
about three weeks behind normal.

I enjoy the four seasons. Just when you get tired of the same old thing,
things start to change. In the Fall one can star gaze without bundling up
too much and still get lots of sleep at night because it is getting darker
earlier. I have about twenty good size pumpkins growing for halloween
decorations. Apple Cider and donuts are now flowing at mills. Halloween is
my favorite holiday. The costume dance parties, haunted houses, corn field
mazes, hay rides, cool weather, Apple Cider and Pumpkin Pie.

I prepay for the fuel bill, the pantry is well stocked and so is the
freezer. This week I will remove the window screens, put in the glass
windows, remove the water hoses and store the patio furniture. For me
winter is the Math and physics season, exercising the mind, learn and see
how the universe works.

  thanks!  i like the hairy look on the ladies.
very natural.

  for some reason peach blossom picture would not
load, but the rest i could see.

  weather here has been beautiful lately.  it
should be warm enough through friday at least with
a bit of rain here or there in the forecast (won't
believe it until i see it).  we've not even had to
turn on the heat yet (but a few nights were cool
enough to make me get out the warmer clothes for
a change).

  i was enjoying my evening breeze when the combine
started harvesting the soybeans next to us.  didn't
get to the peas in time.  75F in here now.  very
nice.

Some glitch in photobucket I expect, the pic is OK at this end and has the
same origin and treatment as the rest.  Photobucket does some strange
things, like much web software it seems unreliable.  They recently announced
that you could set your own avatar image - it doesn't work.  Also their
stats are all over the place.


I like the change of season, given any choice I like to travel in October
and April.

What is the connection between the harvester starting and you getting your
peas?  Do you mean you were going to test harvest a few soybeans before the
harvester arrived?
